Don’t go the distance for other people. Do it for yourself.

         “Yeah, yeah.” With a short reply and an eye roll later, Neku continues to brush his fingers through curly strands, evidently compliant with Joshua’s wishes. “Hold still.” He attempts to flatten out the small curls leading up to the ponytail - sliding on hair tie from his wrist - tying once, twice, three times around. There.

         Neku finishes restyling @xkiryu​’s hair, rests his hands on Joshua’s shoulders and leans over to see the magazine’s quiz in his hands. He squints to ensure he reads the title correctly. “What kind of.. ocean are you?” Neku turns to face Joshua with yet another irritated look. “Really?”  

[burritosaladd]

don’t be too reckless, dear~

[heyphones]

     ➜     A wild @shobusiness​ has appeared!

     “What the hell-” With his anxiety skyrocketing, Neku takes a step back and raises his hands at the man approaching. “-you again?”

[heyphones]

     @harinohana-blog has just begun to paint his nails when @xkiryu walks in - wearing a conniving smile and holding a particular item in his hands. Thrilled at the idea of being spoiled, Neku turns back to face Shiki, commenting on Joshua’s appearance with slight annoyance.

     “He's playing assistant today? What happened with that other girl - Ai, was it?”

“CAT is color blind.  Red-Green color blind specifically. Maybe that’s why he calls himself CAT. I’ve cracked the code.” - @xkiryu

[heyphones]

“You’re going where-- now?” Eyebrows and hands raised in question of @wysteriachild​‘s newest activity.  Unable to check the time due to her pace, Neku followed his enthused friend down a road of ghost hunting. “Wait, Rhyme.” 

Finally catching up to her stride, he offers some company. 

“Count me in. “

[heyphones]

“I can’t rewind it, dumbass.” He purposely takes a seat in the middle of their couch, leaving little room for @xkiryu​. “It’s live.”

Did Josh ever sleep? I bet he didn’t. I bet he saw things. Things he could hold over Neku for years to come >v>

I realize this idea has been done to death but I’m dipping my toes into this ship oh so steadily so permit me the cringe />v<\

[heyphones]

     “Wait, you..” Eyes widened, the young man taken aback by @xkiryu​‘s surprise gift. “There’s no way- no way in hell.”

     He’s holding the best gift he’s probably ever received, and fuck any and all of Joshua’s ill intentions behind this, Neku’s taking the moment for all its worth; reading over the blurbs and admiring those intricate designs carved on the headphones and holy mother of CAT Neku might just die. Here. Again.

   “Josh. These haven't been released yet. ”

[heyphones]

    Awkwardly standing there as @harinohana​ and @wysteriachild​ have begun their down discourse over.. what idol now? They’ve been going at this for a while too. 

     Should he just go or...?

HELLO MY GIRL COCO IS CANON NOW AND I’M GOING TO CRY

[heyphones]

      She was quite glad he accepted, she had been quite busy that she hadn’t been able to hang out with her best friend.

      Her eyes widened in surprise.  Neku knew of that?  “Wha– yes, I have, but how did you know?  I didn’t say anything about it.”

“I overheard someone mention that piggy of yours.” He rubs the back of his neck, thinking back to how apparent it all was. Mr. Mew was one of a kind and Neku would be that ruthless pre-game jerk if he didn’t connect the dots with her absence.

Yet another ‘left for when you are older’ comment, these are certainly becoming plentiful as the months pass by. Too bad no one has noticed they began to fall on deaf ears some years ago. 

Not giving up just yet, a noncommittal hum was drawn out in lieu of giving an answer, fingers laced together to delicately cupping the still bell. “Still, don’t you think it’d be… Fun to try?”

[heyphones]

Either he can put a stop to this now and risk Rhyme never opening up to him again, or he can support her endeavours - no matter how eerie - and be the sidekick he’s never dreamt of being. 

Clearly there was only one option.

“I wouldn’t say that...” He pinches the end of his bangs and resigns to his fate of becoming the sidekick.  “So where exactly is the ‘fun’ part in all this?”

[heyphones]

Accepting @harinohana‘s invitation for an outing.

"Not at all.” Without hesitation, Neku snaps his phone shut and slips it back into his pocket "It’s been a while since we’ve hung out anyway. Last I heard you were working on this big project for a company?"

[heyphones]

     Status: Currently between @harinohana‘s incessant squealing and @xkiryu‘s contempt for the movie. Truly, what a fortunate position to be in.

“.....”

[heyphones]

“What? There’s nothing wrong with homoerotic inclinations. I’m here to support you, Neku.”

“You can support me just fine from a distance. Besides, I hear the stations are offering a special on Asshole Composer. You might want to get in on that.”
